Miraculous x Nightrunner: Chat Blanc's Return

Chapter 8: The Threat, New Allies, Grounded and a gift from a friend

Patrick POV

I walked back to my hotel room and sat on the bed, sulking in defeat and quivering with anger as I thought about what my daughter said to me. I shook my head and lay on my bed, looking at the faded mark on my ring finger where my wedding ring was. 

After my secret affair was revealed, my ex wife, Sophia filed a divorce paper and threw away the wedding ring I bought for her. Thankfully, my new wife and former girlfriend, Emma was able to help me remove all of the money from her account and we managed to split the money. However, our happiness didn't last long. After the birth of our daughter, Johanna, Emma abandoned me with another man, leaving me alone with my daughter. 

Eventually, I abandoned my daughter at an orphanage and haven't seen her ever since because every time I saw her, I saw Emma.

"If there was a way I can get her back, I'd take it." I muttered.

Suddenly, my phone rang and I answered.

"Patrick Evens?" A voice said.

"Who is this?" I asked.

"Someone who can help you get your daughter back. I have a secret that can help you. Check your messages on your laptop." He instructed.

I went on my laptop and opened my messages. When I saw a message from an unknown sender, I opened it and saw images of a black haired boy and the vigilante Nightrunner.

"The boy's name is Callum Wilson. He's the vigilante Nightrunner. Your daughter is also Midnight Angel. Use whatever method you want to use. As long as they're no longer a problem. Do this, and we can assure that your daughter will be with you." The voice said.

I smiled at the thought.

"I accept." 

In just an instant, something struck my phone and darkness covered my body. 

Callum POV

Two weeks have passed and we haven't heard anything about Chat Blanc or the rouge miraculous holders. Master Fu stated that we should keep our eyes open for them, however we haven't seen them, apart from the attacks from akumas and the new holder of the peacock and butterfly miraculous, Madama Butterfly. Paris was becoming less and less safe for everyone ever since Chat Blanc and his crew broke out of prison.

Because everyone was exhausted from the current events, I decided to go out on patrol alone, despite their protests. Even Amy was against it, but I managed to reassure her. During my patrol, I saw a figure dressed in a half black and half white suit and matching loafers for each side. In his hand was a phone. Before I could react, the figure pointed his phone at me.

Suddenly, a wave of electricity flew from his phone. I managed to twist my body to the left, dodging the electric wave. As I landed on the roof, I looked at the figure, who smirked.

"Nice dodge. I expect nothing less from you, Nightrunner." He said. He chuckled and corrected himself.

"Sorry, I mean  Callum Wilson." 

I cursed under my breath and got up from the ground, pulling out my twin batarangs. The akuma's phone transformed into a sword whip with an electric blade. As he struck his sword whip at me, I side flipped to the right and darted towards him. Our weapons clashed against each other as our fight intensified He tried to swing his sword at me, but I dodged and kicked him in the shin, forcing him to kneel, and rolled over his back. Before he could recover, I snapped a kick across his jaw, knocking him across the ground. He got up and smirked.

"Ok, Nightrunner. Let's see if you are the hero Paris needs." He said as he pointed his sword at a group of people tied up via a rope.

"What are you doing?" I demanded.
